Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since KN is the perpendicular bisector, that means ∠KNM = ∠KNQ = 90° and MN = NQ so therefore, since they are right triangles, ΔKNM ≅ ΔKNQ because of HL. Therefore, KM = KQ by CPCTC so:

5x - 3 = 3x + 9

2x = 12

x = 6

Mac's age is 3 years less than twice Joe's age. The sum of their ages is 30. Find their ages.

k0ka [10]

Answer:

Mac is 19 years old, Joe is 11 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

2J - 3 = M

J + M = 30

M = 30 - J

2J - 3 = 30 - J

3J = 33

J = 11

M = 30 - 11

M = 19
